No need for full blood purity.
Even the lowest-grade Tier Three Death Servant can possess 110% blood purity, meaning they can inherit 110% of Zhang Yue's total attributes and simultaneously master Tier Two skills.
Such a Tier Three Death Servant is earth-shatteringly powerful.
A single Tier Three Death Servant could easily one-versus-one a hundred mechanical soldiers without issue.
Thus, under their rampant slaughter, Zhang Yue's world quest progress also soared rapidly.
Unbeknownst to him, while Zhang Yue was conquering the World 45, nations across the globe were all shaken by Zhang Yue's killing of the God of Desire, and, relying on his own might in the World 44 to rout the God of Malevolence and the Demon Emperor, were holding meetings about their countries' future development.
Even the Beacon Nation, the world's number-one power, could not avoid this, and Elfa personally convened a meeting.
———
[Capital of the Beacon Nation, High Council Chamber]
Top leaders of the Beacon Nation gathered around the table.
"The power of the three supreme gods, even Lord Elfa and the Cold Nation's strongest, Frost Mage King Kwon Ji-hyun, cannot match them. Yet Zero effortlessly slew two of those supreme gods in succession. That strength is already invincible."
"Even the Demon Emperor was helpless against him!"
"Zero has repeatedly created myths and miracles in other worlds. Usually, from stepping into another world to catching up with top-tier professionals, even those with extraordinary talent need at least ten years. Judging by Zero's current trajectory, I'm afraid he could reach above the World 90 within the next six months!"
"Six months? Don't forget that not long ago he cleared eight worlds overnight! At this rate, I think he only needs one month to reach the goal and surpass everyone here!"
Facing the councilors' remarks, Elfa folded his hands and stared intently, saying nothing.
After a long while, he finally asked, "Have my previous orders been issued?"
A councilor to his left replied, "Notices have been sent to all domestic professionals. Major worlds have already started taking action."
Elfa nodded and said, "Try to turn the Dragon Nation from foe to friend whenever possible."
Thus, on the world forums, some interesting comments from netizens of various countries began to appear.
["Guess what I saw in another world today! In the World 32's Death Territory I saw a Beacon Nation party run into Dragon Nation professionals in a secret realm. I expected a fight like before over the realm, but the Beacon Nation actually handed the realm over to the Dragon Nation!"]
["What a big scoop! Isn't the Beacon Nation always decisive and domineering? What's this about?"]
["What else could it mean but brown-nosing the Dragon Nation! The Dragon Nation already has two Mythical-class professionals, Necromancer and Shadow Dancer. Soon they will surpass the Beacon Nation and become the world's top power. If Beacon Nation keeps opposing Dragon Nation now, aren't they just digging their own grave?"]
["Not just the Beacon Nation, I heard the Cold Nation's people are also brown-nosing the Dragon Nation. Stories of Cold Nation professionals assisting Dragon Nation pop up across many worlds. These folks used to form an eight-nation coalition to suppress the Dragon Nation; now they're all sucking up to them. Hilarious!"]
["Hilarious? I only see the rise of one nation. The Dragon Nation is getting stronger and stronger, so every country wants to curry favor. Jjust like when the Beacon Nation was at its peak and everyone courted it."]
["All that talk about world unification and joining forces to fight otherworld monsters is fake, it's just raw power showing."]
["Not like small countries like ours, always suffering from war, bullied wherever we go. I envy the Dragon Nation. If only I had such a powerful motherland…"]

[World 45, Metal Frenzy]
Under the sweeping onslaught of the undead army, the vast Mechanical City had already been cleared.
Over one million mechanical soldiers, all annihilated.
Under Zhang Yue's orders, the undead army entered and began cleaning the battlefield, looting battle spoils.
Zhang Yue, meanwhile, was sorting through the intangible gains.
A Necromancer killing monsters not only summons Death Servants.
There's also a chance to harvest monsters into pets.
Although the chance was only 1%, this citywide slaughter still brought Zhang Yue considerable gains.
He used these harvested common pets in a ten-into-one fusion upgrade.
In the end, he merged nine legendary pets.
Using those nine legendary pets as fodder, he finally evolved the only pet among his collection that hadn't yet reached Mythical rank, the Ice-Sealed Wargod.
["Ding~ Congratulations, your legendary pet [Ice-Sealed Wargod] has evolved into the Mythical [Ice-Sealed Throne]. Special effects Ice-Snow Spirit Shield, Ice Body Protection, Snow Spirit Frame, Ice-Sealed Deity, and Ice Soul have all been raised to Lv MAX!"]
["Ding~ Congratulations, your pet [Ice-Sealed Throne] has unlocked the Mythical pet exclusive effect: Glory · Undying Frost Body!"]
Glory · Undying Frost Body: All healing effects received by the Ice-Sealed Throne are multiplied by ten, and while at full health, received healing will convert into an Ice Shield that protects itself. The Ice Shield's value cannot exceed 100 times its maximum HP.
It must be said, the special effect the Ice-Sealed Throne comprehends is terrifyingly strong.
A shield equal to 100 times HP
For reference, Zhang Yue's Void Soul Shield can at most accumulate a shield of 20 times HP.
If he later pairs it with a healer, the Ice-Sealed Throne would be an absolutely unkillable iron ox.
Unfortunately, among Zhang Yue's many pets there are archers, assassins, mages, knights, warriors, but not a priest.
According to Otherworld records, a Beastmaster profession can have at most four pets.
Because of the [Void Soul Stone], Zhang Yue added one more pet slot, allowing him to summon five pets.
This means he can't gain any additional pet slots unless he removes one of these five pets and replaces it with a priest.
But the Armageddon Black Dragon, Skeleton King, Apex Predator, Cherry, and Ice-Sealed Throne have all developed bonds with Zhang Yue, he's reluctant to replace any of them.
"So I can only hope that later some method will break the Beastmaster's pet limit."
Logically, Necromancers differ from ordinary Beastmasters and should have a way to break the limit.
Five pets is still too few.
If there were no limit and pets could be deployed infinitely, that would be perfect.
Combined with Necromancer features, in the future Zhang Yue could command tens of thousands of Mythical pets.
Linked to Undead Summoning.
Later, he could equip each Death Servant with a Mythical pet as a mount.
Can't imagine how spectacular that scene would be…
